So when did Nintendo start treating Barrel Roll like it's the funniest joke in the world?
Like I've been seeing it everywhere and it's getting kinda irritating.

There was a problem fetching the tweet
Like what is this? When did it become the funniest **** again?

It's not even a barrel roll. Fox does an aileron roll. They're different things.
Because, dead meme or not, it's still more recongnizable than 95% of anything else from Star Fox. :p

Of course they'd exploit, who the heck wouldn't see this coming, especially with how marketing is nowadays?

It'd like be a new F Zero not exploiting Falcon Punch.

What happened this time?
Would you like to expand on that thought or...
Probably because you said "it's not even a barrel roll. It's an aileron roll" while going on about how the joke isn't funny, @Substitution.

There's a Game Theory all about that one.

And GT fans usually go on about how "WELL ACTUALLY IT'S AN AILERON ROLL! I SAW GAME THEORY SAY IT!" whenever the Barrel Roll joke is made.

seriously they are such a bad influence on fandoms even when they are right

Gods, why is Road Taken so good?
This is like the best FE track in the series why does it have to play only, like, 3 times in Conquest? I could listen to this all day

"I hate them because they spread misinformation"
"I hate when GT is right"
Am I the only one seeing a contradiction here?

Jungle Book should've been in DDD. As well as a Sword in the Stone world. Not sure why they passed the opportunity.
Personally, I'd put them in the place of La Cite des Cloches and The Grid and save those worlds for KH3.

----
There was going to be a Jungle Book world on Birth By Sleep, but it was scrapped. Not sure why though, since i don't think there was any other Jungle-Like world in BBS that could Overlap with.

It's the grinding theme for a reaspn. :p

Just like conquest in awekening, which was by far the most memorable normal map theme.

At what point did I say I hate them when they are right?

At what point did I even say it was the theorising part that I hated?

It's the attitude he takes and how he manages to be a bad influence to a fandom in one way or another. That's the part I hate. It kills discussion.

Please learn to properly read my posts, rather than trying to twist my words every time I say something you don't like because you're emotional.

It's not GT. Just morons who think it's more than it is...

That's why game theory is getting obnoxious.

Plus, Matt should never try to take a moral high ground again.

The Peppy Mission repeats it so many times that it feels like a parody rather than them trying to be meme-y.

I'm indifferent to GT. But if there's one thing to make me dislike it, it's that rather than fun like it's suppose to be, people from both sides of the argument take it so seriously.

It's funny because they make it ridiculous.

It's not one reference they hope people get.

They know we know it, and keep pounding into us until it reaches insanity. And then they keep going.

That's why it's funny.

I hate how they spread information in the sense that it kills discussion, yes.

I did not say I hate when they are right. I said they are a bad influence on fandoms even when they are right (you literally just quoted this line, did you not read it properly even after the second time?), which is mostly a direct result of the obnoxious "I'M ALWAYS RIGHT" attitude MatPat has, that rubs off on his fanbase, and thus, kills discussion - which is the thing I ultimately hate.

I also stated in the last discussion, that there were a few GT videos I actually liked from the past, so I never said I hated it altogether or something. It's just a lot of the new stuff where misinformation has gotten more abundant, the theories are obviously flawed yet bought religiously, and then he has an obnoxious attitude about it, something he didn't do in the past.

And a valid criticism =/= a personal attack, especially when it's something you have been criticised for before, and you have reacted that same way every time, while not denying anything (let alone actually proving me wrong, which you can't).

He actually didn't do anything really wrong.

Someone complained about the Barrel Roll meme, said it's really an aileron roll.

Someone commented about how "Game Theory just has to ruin game discussions all the time".

People didn't get that.

I said it's probably a reference to how MatPat made a theory about that and GT fans tend to always be smartbutts whenever the meme is referenced and say "ACTUALLY GAME THEORY SAID IT'S AN AILERON ROLL!". I then made a witty comment about how they manage to be a bad influence on fanbases even when they are right.

And then someone tries to twist my words on it as a gut reaction without first thinking because they tend to have a raw emotional response to a lot of things I say that they don't agree with.

Just another day on the Nintenzone Social Thread of Smashboards Dot and Com.

I think it's you who doesn't know how to read your posts
He never claims he's "always right", he does them for fun, it's not his fault people think he's always right
It's not his fault people try to kill discussion by referencing his videos either
And a valid criticism =/= a personal attack, especially when it's something you have been criticised for before, and you have reacted that same way every time, while not denying anything.
Should I bring up stuff about you that's not related to the current argument then? It's irrelevant to the matter and that makes it come off as a personal attack
As I'm sure you're aware how your "obsession" with Rosalina has been brought up by other users during related discussions to her

You haven't watched his videos then, he constantly references old theories in newer ones and makes fun of people who think they are wrong, and of course there's his social media and his situation with Scott and how he literally told Scott he was wrong about his own game.

Also, he doesn't do them for fun. He does it for a living. Like literally, it's his only job.

And it's not necessarily unrelated to the current discussion when you literally made a brash, emotional response without thinking there and then. Did you want me to ignore it?

Also, implying I care about what a bunch of teenagers have to say about the fact I like a fictional character, and implying I care when they say I am obsessed, even though I know full well the proper definition of the word and that I don't fall under it, while they are probably still failing English class at school. Pfft. :V

Well for one thing I learned we can bring up tense subjects that have just been brought up a couple days ago and still be tense about it. :p

Anyway, to explain. . .ugh, forget it, I think I have a gut understanding of what is going on here, but I can't really put it into words.

SonicBrawler has some valid criticisms that they want to voice that they are actually willing to elaborate on (that's incredibly rare in this fandom, mind you, most people just go "buuuuh I hate this!" to everything) and is getting rightfully frustrated at being constantly shut down.

Everyone else is upset because everyone is complaining constantly and bashing everything in this fandom and they're utterly sick of it, so they're willing to shut down any criticism of something that they don't personally hate or actually like because they're rightfully sick of how toxic it usually gets around here.

No side's really wrong, but it's a sucky situation nonetheless.

I wasn't even really being critical at first, this time.

I just made a bit of a joke and someone decided that was a reason to dig up an old argument.

I can't even be frustrated at this point. More apathetic.

I also have more important things on my mind than forum arguments and space waifus, like the fact I'm getting a tooth pulled tomorrow morning.

Yeah, I kinda remember. Sorry about that. ^^'

Anyway, good luck to you in that case. I would say for you to opt to go under/be sedated for it or something, but if you can't or don't want to pay for it or your local dentistry doesn't offer the option, then oh well.

Complaining about Complaining, that is asinine. Let the man vent, let his salt explode through his fingers onto the keyboard to show how much something sucks to waste away the anger and then feel better.

I know RWBY has its fans but that artstyle just doesn't do it for me.

I guess I'll just end this here since it seems all replies I get end will end with the same "insult" masked as an argument

Chibi tends to take something that's already deliciously sugary and put a little too much sugar on it for my tastes, but oh my gosh Jaune.

That wide-eyed expression with the big goofy grin is kind of hilarious. It kinda makes you want to smile back.
